LAS VEGAS – Troy's Japonica James struggled to get the ball to go into the hoop for most of the Las Vegas trip, but the senior showed moxie and was the spark that the Trojans needed late in a battle against Kent State. James' late game heroics were enough as Troy closed out the South Point Holiday Hoops Classic with a 71-64 victory over Kent State and improving to 9-2 on the year.
One thing is for certain, this Trojan team will not quit. We saw it against Duke and we saw it again against a very talented Kent State team out the MAC.
